"Perhaps what you measure is what you get. More likely, what you measure is all you'll get. What you don't (or can't) measure is lost." – H. Thomas Johnson

Not everything that can be measured matters, not everything that matters can be measured. A variation on a quote misattributed to Albert Einstein, may have been William Bruce Cameron. Modified by page editor.
